Consider the following scenario. A car for which friction is not negligible accelerates from rest down a hill, running out of ga

soline after a short distance (see below). The driver lets the car coast farther down the hill, then up and over a small crest. He then coasts down that hill into a gas station, where he brakes to a stop and fills the tank with gasoline. Identify the forms of energy the car has, and how they are changed and transferred in this series of events.

Answer:

1) U-> K +W

2) K -> W

Explanation:

In this exercise, care must be taken as they indicate that the friction force (rubbing) is not negligible.

1 part at the top of the hill the car has gravitational potential energy, which is transformed in a part into kinetic energy and another part into heat by the work of the friction force that opposes the movement.

2 part when the other hill rises it loses kinetic energy that is transformed into gravitational potential energy and part in heat due to the work of the friction force on this hill.

3rd part in the last descent all the gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy and the application of the brakes is transformed into heat due to the negative lock of the friction force and filled with gasoline that has chemical energy that can be transformed in the engine.

A comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour foe 4 hours time. What is the total distan
Triss [41]

Answer:

<em>The distance covered by comet is </em>200,000 km

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is given by the equation speed= \bold{\frac{distance}{time}}

Thus distance= speed*time

In this problem it is given that speed of comet= \frac{50,000km}{hr}

time travelled by the comet= 4 hours

Thus distance= speed*time

                            = 500000*4

                            = \bold{200,000km}

A wire is wrapped 200 times around a hollow cylinder of cross-sectional area 12 cm2 and length 10 cm. Assuming the turns are spr
Sonja [21]

Answer:

The answer is 10.857mJ

Explanation:

The energy stored in this solenoid is given by the below mentioned equation,

U = L*I^{2}/2

where L the inductance of this solenoid is given by the below mentioned equation,

L = u_{0} *N^{2}*A/L

Plugging this into the energy equation you obtain the equation for the total energy stored in the magnetic field of the solenoid, given by,

U = u_{0} *N^{2}*A*I^{2}/(2*L)

where u_{0} is the permeability of free space which equals to u_{0} = 4*\pi *10^{-7} T.m/A. Plugging all the quantities into the above equation from the data in the question after converting to standard units. of meters instead of centimeters, we get for the energy stored in the coil,

U = 10.857mJ

While entering a freeway, a car accelerates from rest at a rate of 2.40 m/s2 for 12.0 s. (a) Draw a sketch of the situation. (b)
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) See attached picture, b) We know the initial velocity = 0, initial position=0, time=12.0s, acceleration=2.40m/s^{2}, c) the car travels 172.8m in those 12 seconds, d) The car's final velocity is 28.8m/s

Explanation:

a) In order to draw a sketch of the situation, I must include the data I know, the data I would like to know and a drawing of the car including the direction of the movement and its acceleration, just like in the attached picture.

b) From the information given by the problem I know:

initial velocity =0

acceleration = 2.40m/s^{2}

time = 12.0 s

initial position = 0

c)

unknown:

displacement.

in order to choose the appropriate equation, I must take the knowns and the unknown and look for a formula I can use to solve for the unknown. I know the initial velocity, initial position, time, acceleration and I want to find out the displacement. The formula that contains all this data is the following:

x=x_{0}+V_{x0}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{x}t^{2}

Once I got the equation I need to find the displacement, I can plug the known values in, like this:

x=0+0(12s)+\frac{1}{2}(2.40\frac{m}{s^{2}} )(12s)^{2}

after cancelling the pertinent units, I get that  my answer will be given in meters. So I get:

x=\frac{1}{2} (2.40\frac{m}{s^{2}} )(12s)^{2}

which solves to:

x=172.8m

So the displacement of the car in 12 seconds is 172.8m, which makes sense taking into account that it will be accelerating for 12 seconds and each second its velocity will increase by 2.4m/s.

d) So, like the previous part of the problem, I know the initial position of the car, the time it travels, the initial velocity and its acceleration. Now I also know what its final position is, so we have more than enough information to find this answer out.

I need to find the final velocity, so I need to use an equation that will use some or all of the known data and the unknown. In order to solve this problem, I can use the following equation:

a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{0} }{t}

Next, since I need to find the final velocity, I can solve the equation just for that, I can start by multiplying both sides by t so I get:

at=V_{f}-V_{0}

and finally I can add V_{0} to both sides so I get:

V_{f}=at+V_{0}

and now I can proceed and substitute the known values:

V_{f}=at+V_{0}

V_{f}=(2.40\frac{m}{s^{2}}} (12s)+0

which solves to:

V_{f}=28.8m/s
